At 9,350 feet in elevation, Quito is among the highest capitals in the world, but President Russell M. Nelson wants Ecuadorian Latter-day Saints to aim even higher: heaven.
To reach that lofty destination their with their families, he said, will require love at home and obedience to divine commands.
“The home must be God’s laboratory to love and serve. That’s where a husband loves his wife, a wife loves her husband, and parents and children love each other,” the 94-year-old leader of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints told thousands of members Monday night at General Rumiñahui Coliseum in the Ecuadorian capital, according to a news release.
